CHILDREN'S RIGHTS and CHILDREN'S LITERATURE
Special Issue of The Lion and the Unicorn
Guest Editors:
Lara Saguisag, College of Staten Island-City University of New York
Matthew B. Prickett, Rutgers University-Camden
We are seeking papers that investigate the intersections between the histories, theories, and practices of children's rights and children's literature. In response to the ratification of the United Nation's Convention on the Rights of the Child (UN-CRC) in 1989, advocates and scholars have debated the necessity and revealed the complexity of defining and implementing children's rights across the globe. Critical discourse on children's rights, however, has not yet fully examined the role that children's literature plays in shaping, promoting, implementing and interrogating children's rights. This special issue invites scholars to explore the connections between the institutions of children's rights and children's literature.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
Depictions of young people's political and/or economic participation in children's and young adult literature
Literary representations of child soldiers, child laborers, child sex workers and other young people whose rights are deemed violated
The role of children's literature in fulfilling young people's rights (such as the right to education and the right to leisure)
The relationships between charters on human and children's rights (such as the 1930 White House Convention Children's Charter, the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the 1989 United Nation's Convention on the Rights of the Child) and twentieth-century children's literature
How historical fiction and non-fiction about other rights movements (women's rights, gay rights, Civil Rights, labor rights, immigrant rights, etc. ) attempt to shape young readers' understanding of rights
U.N.-funded children's books that explicitly promote children's rights
Poverty and children's and young adult literature
Colonialism/Postcolonialism and children's and young adult literature
Citizenship and children's and young adult literature
Censorship and children's rights
Conflicts between child characters and adult characters over the child's rights and obligations
Essays should be sent to guest editors Lara Saguisag and Matthew B. Prickett at firstname.lastname@example.com by May 31, 2015. Submissions should be 15-20 pages (4000-6000 words). Accepted articles will appear in issue 40.2 (2016) of The Lion and the Unicorn.
For 2014, the Filipino Readers' Choice Awards will be open to books published from January to December 2013, in the following categories:

Thanks!

Hi Michael,
I am starting to look for a new set of irons this season. I play with Ping S-59 irons now. I would like some ideas of new irons at the show with the same feel and look.
Titleist33 wrote on January 27, 2011 at 6:22PM
I have Neuropothies with both hands and feets. The balance is tough to keep my distance of the clubs. Is there any way to get back some of my speed , I'm losing about 40 yards on the driver.
As for chipping around the green with a lower lofted club (ie 7 or 8 iron) where do you position the ball and what type swing (putting, steep angle, etc) should you use? Also what are some good drills for this shot?
BRUCE H wrote on January 27, 2011 at 6:22PM
I hit a draw on all full shots although I can turn it the other way,when I hit my 56 degree wedge with a half swing it goes very straight...Why ?
Michael, I am 67 years old and getting less flexable and carry a 5 handicap. I have a problem of coming up out of a shot a bit especially on fairway wood and longer irons thus hitting a lower shot. How can i learn to stay down so I can get the ball up higher. Sometimes I hang back a bit instead of getting my weight properly on my left side.
Thanks so much,
Michael McAllister

Hey Michael,
I got my irons bent 2 degrees upright by the pro at my course the other day. I then went to the range and began to hit my irons much higher than usual. Does the changing of lie angles in my clubs affect how I hit the ball?
This might be a question that is impossible to answer, but how can I hit the ball as well on the course as I do on the practice range?
Titleist33 wrote on January 27, 2011 at 6:24PM
I have the new driver, it's awesome! The only club in my bag that is NOT a Titleist is my 3 wood. What is your opion on the new 3 wood compared to previous models?
Michael - Pro V1x is my ball of choice since introduced on market. 12 handicapper at age 60 with an average swing speed of only 97mph (getting older of course). At what swing speed increment should the average player consider a change in the model of ball being played or do you consider this to be the singular determining factor?
I've been a scratch golfer while I was in my late teens and early twentys but life got in the way and golf wasn't as affordable once I moved to a new area of the country, but I can still shoot some mid 60 rounds when I do manage to get in a couple rounds. Despite that, I still occassionally will encounter the dreaded SHANK. What is the real cause for this affliction that can cripple you instantly. It only occurs when I'm using my wedges for bunker or shorter fairway shots. I know that it must have something to do with lagging hands,slower swing and I tend to get a little to handsy ... but no one really explains the Why this can occur and How to correct. All I've done to correct is insure that I place more of my weight on my heels and it seems to correct. however, I still notice that my ball mark is perilously close to the hossel and not center of the club as we all would like.
I look forward to seeing a thorough explaination of causes and corrects for this affliction. i'm sure many would benefit should you choose to address this forbiden subject.

I'm 68 years old with a swing speed of about 85mph and hit the ball solid. I love Titleist products for balls. Which one would you recommend for a old man?
Titleist33 wrote on January 27, 2011 at 6:25PM
Enjoy your show and comments. I practice during the winter here in the Northeast. Do you recommend a golf mat that gives more grass type feel when hitting down on.
Thank you
Michael can you explain what you would do to get ready before you go to the first tee?
Hi Michael, thanks fo entertaining my question. I have lost 85 lbs. since 2007. With that weight loss, I have lost 15 to 20 yards on all irons. I am not in poor physical shape but only have a swing speed of about 81mph. What is your best suggestion in gaining my yardage back?
My question is that I will hit shanks with my wedges once in a while and it drives me nuts trying to figure out what I am doing and how to fix it. Help me out Michael.
At what point in the takeaway do U ***/ hinge your wrists and is there an easy drill that will help U get that " feel " ?? Thanks.
If your ball is embedded just underneath the lip in the top of a bunker located next to the green and the pin is 25-30 ft away on a small down slope, what is the best way to excute that shot?

What is up with all the White clubs, putters and now Taylor Made has the R-11 White driver. Is the material lighter, different than all other? Is this just a way of making a brand stand out from the crowd of plain old grey or black?
I noticed in one of your shows that you recommend to do a press on the putter before making a stroke therefore delofting the putter. My scotty has a 7 degree loft. Why is that? If the proper contacton the putter head and the ball has to be flat?
Titleist33 wrote on January 27, 2011 at 6:27PM
I would like to switch back to titleist driver this year, but i love (and have paid for) my diamana white shaft. With the new adjustable stuff, do i have to buy a new shaft as well?

Hey! I'm Jake, I just signed up for the forum here at Homebrewtalk. I haven't been brewing much over the last few years, because I live in a studio apartment and the temperature in here (even in winter) isn't suitable for brewing. Its currently 76 degrees in here and the sun just set. In the winter it averages 72. I recently started building a fermentation chiller inside an existing cabinet in my kitchen, and figured I'd post it on here and see what people think. It's different than the typical ones I've researched online, but I think (hope!) it should work! I'm yet to install any fan(s) or thermostat, but that's next. Thanks for reading, and any advice is appreciated!! -Jake http://youtu.be/3DUNH507GCo
Very cool...if you had success with putting an ice pack down below, why put it up top with a fan? Also it would be interesting to see a fermenter with a thermometer in the center...to see how it temps out. But very creative usage of your space! Happy Brewing!
I wondered that myself, honestly. You think I should just fill a fermenter with water and place a long thermometer in it, and test it out??
...by the way....I guess I should say, I don't 'think' it's good for brewing....I've tried two basic ales since I've lived here and both I couldn't get the ambient temperature down below 72 degrees, tops.
Looks like the stove is right next to it. Have you tested it with the stove/oven on?
Nope....another thing I didn't even think of. I hardly ever use the oven, but use the stovetop daily....
The reason you'd want to store the ice in a separate compartment is so that you can control the temperature inside the fermentation chamber. Without the fan wired to some sort of thermostat, though, you may as well just pack the fermentation chamber with ice.
Well, I found this setup researching the chillers, and it comes with everything you need to wire it up. http://www.coolerguys.com/840556082491.html I'm and hands on guy, but being in an apartment, and soldering and etc, I'd rather just pay a few extra dollars and know that when I leave home, that it's safe. So, considering the small size of the holes, do you think that by having the ice up top, that with a fan intermittently blowing down from up above, that it should work like the son of a ferm chiller? I understand their design, as it pulls the air across the jugs and back into the main chamber, but being in my little 400 sq ft studio, I didn't want to add anything to my already small sq footage, so I figured using a cupboard would be awesome and out of the way. I also figured that it being a solid structure, that the combination of my 2" insulation, and the wood i'm building it within would be great at keeping the temps in control. I wish I had a fan I could use to experiment with the temperatures.
It should work great. A 120mm fan is approximately 5"x5"; what size are the holes shown in the video? Is there a reason you wouldn't wanna make them a little larger?

There are so many areas tonight that have extremely high chance of tornadoes. Like Sharon says, please stay safe and take every precaution! |
I was outside much of the afternoon and we had some wind, but nothing bad. I was just watching the news and it was all around us, really bad weather. Stay safe everyone! |
We have had some wind and rain at my house, but there has been hail and tornadoes in the area. Schools were dismissed early, so I had to leave work early to keep the grands till SonIL got off work. Any excuse to leave work this week. beverly |

East TN was rockin' and rollin' all day. Several tornadoes and damage everywhere. I am safe, no damage and didn't lose power which is very unusual. We had a storm with rotation go right over where I work in downtown Knoxville. That was a little freaky because I work on the top floor in a building made of glass surrounded by tall buildings made of glass! Rebecca |
I was able to work in the yard and plant things and pull weeds all afternoon yesterday. The news last night reported late afternoon storms for us. The thunder and lightening started at 10AM and I put out the candles. Starting this early we will prob loose electricity. Mary ask your dog aboout our weather lol! Rebecca I worked in a similar building in Orlando, I was on the top floor and we could see the hits the lightening rods took. SCARY!! Hoping for the best for everyone! |
I hope everyone is OK! We had rain all day yesterday and all night. No damage in our area, but, watching the Savannah news just and hour away they had a lot of damage. We were lucky! |

Rebecca, that storm you saw passed on to Murphy, NC and did damage the Walmart, Big Lots, WKRK radio station antena and Wayne's Feed store also. Our little cabin is ok and the NC neighbors there are ok. One large tree came down and they got it cut up and toted off so the gal could use her driveway. Glad there were no injuries! Our friend in Blue Ridge, GA said it was quite a night Fri. She used her nervous energy to hem 4 pairs of jeans until 2 am! Our quilt group sent emails and kept in touch with each other with reports. They are safe. This Sun. morn. in Orl. we were pelted with winds and rains. Scary. Stay alert and safe, Everyone! Gwen |

I'm in East Tennessee near Rebecca, and no damage where I'm at either. A lot nearby, though. Very scary. Sharon, my dh tries to put our horses in the barn if we know hail is possible. They usually stay in the pasture, but like to be out of the elements when it's really bad. Glad to hear everyone is OK. Robbi |

Gwen, I was waiting for the wind and rain, but it never came. I was hoping the leaves would blow away....or at least to the back of the house. lol Robbi, Good idea about the horses. Hail can be very damaging. Years ago, one of my girls had her vehicle totaled and my sister's newly bought house had so much siding damage done by hail, it had to be replaced. SharonG/FL |

I wonder......has the weather always been this violent and destructive? Or, does the internet and immediate access to weather reports and media coverage make it seem like the destructive weather patterns are more wide spread and frequent? I cringe and have a hard time wrapping my mind around the tornadoes. I hope everyone is safe. I feel horrible for those who have lost their homes, and towns, friends and family. |

Romney did almost no better with women than John McCain did in 2008. He did approximately the same with married women (a core constituency for Republicans), and Obama once again had a landslide victory with unmarried women.
Sadly, the GOP lost all the gains on this front that it made during the 2010 midterm elections, when Republicans managed to close the gender gap and elect a slew of strong, conservative female lawmakers to the House, the Senate, and state legislatures.
Conservatives shy away from playing gender politics — which is a good thing — but that doesn't mean we don't need to think seriously about how to talk to women.
It's certainly our goal at the Independent Women's Forum to reach women about how limited government, personal responsibility, and free markets will actually give them more freedom, more choice, more opportunity, and more security.
In the end, we need to get out there and talk face-to-face to women and make it clear that Liberty Is No War on Women.
— Sabrina Schaeffer is executive director of the Independent Women's Forum and co-author of Liberty Is No War on Women.
This is not a lesson learned, but it bears repeating as context: It's an uphill climb against a demagogue with a loose relationship with the truth, working in the warm bath of the Fourth Estate Booster Club. In this election, we saw life-ending drugs falsely touted as "women's health"; radical abrogation of conscience rights promoted as "compromise"; and opposition to protection for infants born alive promoted as "compassion." And the result was that 67 percent of single women voted for the Abortion President. We have serious work to do.
We know that abortion harms women. But apparently these women do not. In the middle of the election season Tonya Reeves, a young black mother, died from a botched abortion. Tonya walked into a Planned Parenthood facility on Michigan Avenue in Chicago — the president's back yard — and was left to hemorrhage, right across the street from the Art Institute, for five hours before her death. The self-appointed arbiters of women's well-being organized no marches and no demonstrations, and called for no investigations. The president said nothing.
What did we learn in this election? We learned that Tonya Reeves did not look like Barack Obama's daughters. And if he won't defend her, we will.

The Marissa Mayer Debate: Why Don't We Ask the Same of Men?
By Adrienne May
When you look at the numbers, it becomes impossible to argue that women are fully valued in the professional world. Even in government, women make up a mere 17% of our representatives and senators, a woman has never been elected president or vice president, and there have only been four female Supreme Court justices. We have a long way to go before women are treated with the same amount of respect and significance as men. For now, however, we can celebrate women, like Marissa Mayer, who are putting up with preposterous complications like public debates over her maternity leave, and hope that women who follow after her will compete with men on an even playing ground.

Penguin Random House UK launches online recommendation, retail platform
April 8, 2014 | 11:25 am
By Susan Lulgjuraj
Penguin Random House UK introduced a new platform for readers in what looks like an attempt to shift the retail marketplace.
My Independent Bookstore launched on Monday for private beta testing and is available by invite-only right now. The platform will allow users to display 12 books in a virtual bookshop. They can share, review and recommend books while My Independent Bookstore will be integrated with Facebook, Twitter and Google+.
The difference between this platform and others is that Penguin Random House UK is supporting independent bookstores with this measure. People can buy books through the virtual shops through hive.co.uk, the ecommerce arm of Gardners wholesalers, which is connected with hundreds of independent bookshops across the UK.
From the press release:
As part of the registration process, 'My Independent Bookshop' users can choose their favourite real-world independent bookshop to connect with. Hive will then pass a commission from any purchase made through the website to their chosen shop.
The move seems to be aimed to offset the hold Amazon has on the online marketplace. This could give independent bookshops an advantage in making money through online sales – while having others work for you. It seems the bookshops don't have to do much other than ensure they could be linked to on My Independent Bookstore.
Users won't be forgotten. They can earn rewards with a chance to meet authors, have access to early titles, and get tickets to book events.
UK indie bookseller sector not dead yet apparently
Did Waterstones really see a shift back to print?
HarperCollins UK goes direct-to-consumer: Is Amazon worried yet?
James Patterson buys good karma, wants you to know it
Myindependentbookshop.co.uk isn't yours. And it's not a bookshop. And it's absolutely not independent.
They're going to have to make this very compelling indeed for people to actually use it.
I wonder how much work this really saves an independent book seller from just posting an Amazon Marketplace page that sells their books? No limit to only 12 there.

Feb. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Republican leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives may reinstate guaranteed funding for mass- transit projects after a bill that dropped it drew opposition from party members, a senior House official said.
They are also considering shortening the duration of the bill and cutting planned spending on highway, bridge and transit projects, said the official, who declined to be identified because the talks aren't public.
The current House proposal calls for spending $260 billion on those projects over five years. The new plan would be attached to the bill that the House passed last week to devote revenue from expanded oil and gas drilling to transportation improvements, the official said.
House Speaker John Boehner, an Ohio Republican, put off House debate on the surface-transportation bill last week as some Republicans called it too expensive and others opposed the ending guaranteed funding for mass transit. Business groups led by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the largest business lobby, and transit advocates represented by the American Public Transportation Association also spoke out against the transit proposal.
A call to Boehner's office after regular business hours today wasn't immediately returned.
Congress is facing a March 31 deadline to extend surface transportation funding. Authorization for the last multiyear bill ran out in 2009, and programs have since operated on a series of short-term extensions.
The U.S. Highway Trust Fund pays for programs outlined in surface-transportation legislation with money from a 18.4-cent gasoline tax. It may not be able to meet its obligations as early as October, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. Revenue is declining as Americans drive more fuel-efficient cars and drive less because of higher gas prices, according to the Department of Transportation.

I made both the Wedding dress and the groom's outfit. this was a steep learning curve, as I'd never made anything like this before. The dress is medieval in style and the groom's coat is based on several historical ideas blended into one. I've written more about this over on my blog. http://ragbagsandgladrags.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/relief.html
Unfortunately the pics aren't great and i'll post some better ones, once I get them sorted.
The dress is Silk Dupion, lined and interlined in cotton, with a silk taffeta insert at the back. The Coat and trousers are fulled wool, with a satin lining and Russia braid trim.

Confession time, kids. I have long been, since my college days, a closet Saliva fan. I hear the rampant, frothing criticism already – 'Drew, that's less metal (and therefore worse,) than your general support for the mainstream Five Finger Death Punch and the cupcake that is Sick Puppies.' I know. I get it. Bear with me. Just like those other two bands, Saliva has long distinguished themselves by being able to execute a quality formula for pop metal (if I can call it that.) while maintaining a certain credible edge. With that in mind, we venture forth into "In It to Win It."
We metal fans are not above snobbery. We love our pedigrees as much as any blue-blood. When a new band comes along, we tend to look and see who the members may have played with in the past, hoping for an indicator of quality before we ever hear a note. Seeing a familiar old name attached to a project makes us feel better about getting involved with yet another new band, even if it does tip the scales before our brains are ready to make an informed decision.
By this point, the saga of Kyuss has been fairly well reported. To tell the story fully would require a documentary film of appreciable length, a flowchart with Cliffs Notes and a very long afternoon. What began simply as the band that invented and molded desert metal became a long and drama-ragged tale of music and litigation.
The upshot is this: out of the ashes of short-lived revival Kyuss Lives! comes Vista Chino, spiritual successor to the original Kyuss and composed of that band's co-founding members Brant Bjork, John Garcia and occasionally the enigmatic Nick Oliveri.
I had the good fortune to come of age during the "golden era" of metal. The New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) was in full swing, "Ride the Lightning" had just come out, "Reign in Blood", "Peace Sells" and "Among the Living" would soon follow along with countless bands who would disappear into obscurity.
My top ten list last year was incomplete, because Monsterworks' "Album Of Man" straddled the new year and now exists in it's own little world, unattached to any year in particular. It's a shame, since that album was a schizophrenic joyride through some of the wildest and most daring metal I've come across in a long time. It was, and still is, a bit of a confusing puzzle, but the pieces were so tantalizing that not seeing the big picture isn't really a problem.
Dan Swano is as much an extreme metal legend as you can get. From his work with the seminal Edge Of Sanity, to his years spent behind the desk making every band he worked with sound better than they ever had before, he is one of the key figures in the history of European extreme metal. And all of that is before even mentioning "Moontower", his solo triumph. That album, in my eyes, is the single greatest death metal record ever made, and a towering achievement that single-handedly proves the merit of growled vocals.
What can I say about "Winter Kills", the latest release from "Devildriver", except "holy crap!". These guys are really pissed off. "Winter Kills" is heavy handed, aggressive and at times, dare I say, even melodic. I listened to this album while attempting to do some household chores and damn near put a lamp through the window and kicked over the couch.
If you'll be kind enough to indulge for a moment, I'm probably about to sound like the metal Garrison Keillor. You remember back in 1988 when Metallica released "…And Justice For All" and that album, in a much simpler time, gave rise to the concept of experimentation in thrash and sparked the genre's first debate about the nature of production?
I've opined before about a certain type of metal vocalist whose appeal I can't quite understand; the classical female singer. I sort of understand the philosophy of combining the straight-laced approach of opera with the anything-but ethos of metal, but to my ear, the two have never fit together as anything more than a thought experiment. Even the biggest, brightest example of this is something I never came to terms with. Tarja set the standard for all female vocalists who weren't trying to be the next Joan Jett.
Being the kind of person who dwells on semantics, a band like Thränenkind bothers me even before I've heard a note of their music. Described as 'post-metal', the label leaves me scratching my head. Metal is still alive and flourishing, and it shows no signs of going anywhere, so what does post-metal even mean? In the other arts, post-modernism had a point; it was a deliberate realignment of what art was supposed to be, taking it back from the modernist school, which was both unified and generational. Metal is not like the other arts, however.

- The Leather Pride Flag has a long and well-established existence as such things go, and has appeared in physical cloth form in a number of contexts, and so certainly should not be deleted. Some of the others are a little less established, but not conspicuously more so than a number of other symbols or flags on the page... AnonMoos (talk) 14:46, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

I don't see the gullwing doors as such a big negative. Okay, I did bonk my head on the open door once (and on the center roof panel inside the car twice), but I did not find it to be a tremendous reach to close them. Also, consider that in many two-door cars with conventional doors, the doors are very long and you often can't open them very far in tight quarters; the gullwing doors, by contrast, don't seem to need much clearance.
Exotic looks (and doors) aside, there's much that's familiar here. The 6.2-liter V-8 (which, for reasons known only to itself, AMG insists on characterizing as a 6.3 liter) has a real stock-car rasp; it's an AMG staple (albeit with somewhat less power than the 563 hp seen here). The dual-clutch gearbox doesn't have quite the around-town smoothness of a torque-converter automatic, nor the involvement of an old-fashioned manual, but of course it whips off lightning-quick shifts and matches revs on downshifts.
Compared to the Mercedes-McLaren SLR, this new supercar makes every bit as much of a visual statement but it far easier to drive. Where the SLR was a nervous, twitchy beast that could barely be driven in a straight line, the SLS is as user-friendly as any SL63 AMG.

I mean I am very happy but am I the only one losing weight rapidly? I'm not trying to. Its just I can't eat a lot of stuff. I have diabetes and acid reflux so I'm limited on what I can eat. I barely reach 900 calories sometimes. Sometimes I'll go over 900 but still I don't reach 1000 at all. I don't eat bread, pasta or rice. I don't eat pork. Don't eat smoked sauages because it trigger my acid reflux. No sweets and salty food cus my diabetes. I quit drinking diet sodas because you might as well drink the real thing because diet soda has just amount of sugar as the regular soda do so I quit. I only drink water, green tea and light cranberry juice. Snack I eat fruits and yogurt and I'm gonna try that special k crackers. My typical breakfast will be special k strawberries cereal or oalmeal or homemade cheese grits. I don't eat fast foods. I mostly have a fruit and something to drink for lunch. Like water and sum grapes or green tea or an orange. For dinner. I would eat 1 or 2 wraps cus they are low carbs and either 80 Cal's or 100 Cal's. If it 100 Cal's I will eat one. A salad with low fat ranch dressing and whatever in my wraps I'll put in my salad. Like chicken or ground beef but i love turkey ham so i mix turkey and chicken together sometimes. That's what I do. I also do moderate exercises too. So am I the only one?

Ron Paul: If Gold Isn't Money, Why Are Central Banks Buying It Up?
Submitted by Chris Nomdujourski on Fri, 03/01/2013 - 19:44Posted by Brittany Stepniak - Thursday, February 28th, 2013
Ron Paul spent his career establishing himself as a advocate for liberty and the gold standard while pleading for an end to the Federal Reserve. Although he has since retired from Congress after a spirited 2012 presidential election, he still makes sure his voice – the voice of the people – is heard loud and clear...
Especailly when he's talking to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke.
Yesterday, Helicopter Ben attended a House Financial Serviced Committee hearing on Capitol Hill to testify before Congress bragging, "my inflation record is the best of any Federal Reserve chairman in the postwar period, or at least one of the best, about 2 percent average inflation."

That should not be the argument
for sound money (gold included.) Central banks have many strategies (short-term and long-term) related to thier reserves. Without gold standard, market prices of gold do NOT reflect its potential price under the gold standard. Originally, the FED was fully backed (40% gold and 60% corporate paper) until the government legislation forced the FED to take care of the government unbalanced budget and curb unemployment.
Regarding gold, however, I found Milton Friedman idea of fixed-FIAT (fixed paper supply mandated by law) somewhat reasonable. Milton wanted to avoid inflation and wealth waste that production of gold generates under the gold standard. Herman Hoppe tried to address Milton's argument, but did a poor job. (Example of Milton's argument: new techologies allow drilling very deep into the Earth. If Russia discovers immense reserves of gold, they become instantly rich and we instantly poor. Inflation will eat all our gold value.)

I think the main reason why
I think the main reason why central banks are buying up as much gold as they can is to have a monopoly on the gold market in order to completely control the money system of the world.
Gold can not challenge fiat paper money, but it has been, and the central banks want to stop it.
If they want to get rid of gold in favor of digital money, the central banks of the world must first buy it all up. Once they own most of the gold, they can do whatever they want with paper money.
That's my guess.
Never be afraid to ask simple questions.

TAMPA, FL, May 2 With the training camp for his June 2nd SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING main event against unbeaten Lateef Kayode heating up, former light heavyweight champion and current IBO Cruiserweight champion Antonio Magic Man Tarver took time out from his busy schedule to check in with his thoughts on another high-profile matchup the May 5th meeting between Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto. I think that Mayweathers coming in with all the natural God-given ability and talent, and Cotto comes in with the physical game, said Tarver, who also doubles as a ringside analyst for SHOWTIME. But weve seen Cotto beat, and beaten bad on two occasions. He was outclassed against (Manny) Pacquiao, and he took a beating against (Antonio) Margarito. We havent seen that with Floyd Mayweather yet. I think he (Mayweather) is at the top of the game right now, and hes gonna have more options to do the things that he does in the ring. Yet despite the odds, Tarver doesnt count the 154-pound world champion from Puerto Rico out against the unbeaten Money Mayweather, even though he believes Cotto will have to throw the boxing equivalent of a perfect game in Las Vegas. Cottos gonna have to be perfect, said Tarver, who upset 5 to 1 odds in his most recent bout, knocking out Danny Green in the ninth round last July. Cottos gonna have to be physical, have his defense intact, and hes gonna have to match Floyd. When Floyd opens up, hes gonna have to punch with him. Thats how you negate speed, and thats a big risk, but his reward is so gigantic thats hes gonna have to be willing to lay it all on the line and if has to go out on his shield, go out trying to get that victory. As for Mayweather, Tarver is looking forward to seeing what his teammate on the 1996 United States Olympic boxing team has in store, not just on May 5th, but in the future. Floyds gonna have to keep doing what hes doing, and in two or three more fights, he can ride out into the sunset, he said. Hopefully Pacquiaos in the scheme of things and we can see that fight eventually. That would be great if he could pull that off. If he beats Pacquiao, hes one of the greatest of all-time and not too many people can say that. The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calf., hosts a SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING quadruple header on Saturday, June 2 (9:00 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the West Coast). Current IBO Cruiserweight Champion and former Light Heavyweight World Champion Antonio "Magic Man'' Tarver (29-6, 20 KO's) faces unbeaten Lateef Kayode (18-0, 14 KO's) in a 12-round cruiserweight fight. In the co-feature, former undisputed junior middleweight kingpin Winky Wright (51-5-1, 25 KO's) returns to the ring to meet undefeated Peter Quillin (26-0, 20 KO's) in a middleweight bout. In two world championship fights on the telecast, Austin Trout (24-0, 14 KO's) risks his perfect record and WBA Super Welterweight belt against Delvin Rodriguez (26-5-3, 14 KO's) and IBF number one rated bantamweight contender Vusi Malinga (20-3, 12 KO's) faces top Golden Boy Promotions prospect and IBF number five rated contender Leo Santa Cruz (19-0-1, 11 KO's) for the vacant IBF bantamweight title. Tickets for the June 2 bout are on sale now and are available as low as $25, with VIP floor seats priced at $200. Other tickets in the 8,000-seat outdoor stadium at The Home Depot Center are available at $50 and $100.

WANTS TO SURPRISE ALL THE FANS ON MAY 11 May 2, 2012 - The solid hitter from Cataño, Puerto Rico, Jorge "Machito" Maysonet Jr. ( 6-0 5KO's - 135lbs ) will be in charge of the co-feature bout for the event "Night of Future Champions," taking place on May 11 at the Miriam "Betty" Segarra Coliseum in Peñuelas, PR and will be televised live starting at 8:00pm by The Puerto Rico Sports Network (6.2 and 3.1) and can also be seen as a repeat on the same day in its entirety on channel 6 (PRTV) starting at 11:00pm. "Machito's" rival will be experienced Gabriel Diaz ( 5-6-1, 1KO ) from Guayama,PR. "Diaz may be more experienced than I, but my amateur experience has helped me greatly and professionally you have to make some changes. However, we will have no problem in beating our opponent." said Maysonet Jr., who had a stellar amateur career, racking up 140 victories with only 10 defeats, with 40 wins coming by way of knockout. In his amateur boxing timeline, Maysonet won various local tournaments like the ones named after "Isaac Barientos" and "José "Cheo" Aponte". He also had two notable victories over Abner Cotto. In the professional arena, the only Maysonet fight that has lasted more than one round was against former undefeated prospect Farkhaed Shainov (3-1 1ko), who was defeated by unanimous decision in a bout celebrated in Palm Bay, Florida. "Machito's" father/trainer Jorge Maysonet commented, "Our training is at a level where "Machito" will be in his best condition for the week of the fight. I would be pleased if the fight ended in he first round, as we would take the least damage possible, but we are ready to go the distance because that is why we train this hard." "I have been training very hard. We are very close to the weight and you can expect a lot of action from me on that day because I want to surprise all of the fans." said Jorge "Machito" Maysonet, a member of "Team Puerto Rico" and is represented by "Warrior's Boxing", "Gary Shaw Productions" and "Universal Promotions." The event "Night of Future Champions" will be headlined by Superlightweight Joshua "El Macho" Santiago ( 7-0, 6KO's ) facing off against the always complicated fighter Samuel "Sammito" Santana ( 4-6-2 ) in the 140 pound weight class.

The ARC Centre of Excellence for the History of Emotions (Europe 1100 - 1800) employs specialist Research Fellows who make a unique contribution to a particular aspect of our research.
Dr Merridee L Bailey | Senior Research Fellow
Dr Merridee Bailey was appointed as a five-year Research Fellow based at the University of Adelaide in the Change program. She is investigating emotional discourses surrounding merchant practices in London over the late medieval and early modern period, c. 1450-1650. Drawing on an array of archival materials, from court records to popular printed didactic texts, she is examining the central role of emotions and morality in London merchant activities and the ways in which moral virtues, vices and emotional expressions of good economic conduct were represented. In addition, her research investigates the language of emotions in legal and literary texts. Her project revises our ideas of medieval and early modern merchants, showing that emotions and morality were at the core of economic activity.
Dr Grace Moore | Senior Research Fellow
Grace Moore is a Senior Research Fellow in the Shaping the Modern program at The University of Melbourne. Her primary research project is an examination of the representation of bushfires in nineteenth-century settler literature, which will lead to a book, Arcady in Flames. Grace's recent research projects include an essay on emotional responses to arson in novels and the periodical press, combining the work of Brian Massumi with readings of popular short stories and a novella by Anthony Trollope. With Stephanie Trigg, she will be producing a fire source book for high school children. Grace will also be convening the 'Fire Stories' symposium, which will take place at the University of Melbourne in December 2013.
Dr Andrew Lawrence-King | Honorary Senior Visiting Research Fellow
Andrew Lawrence-King is a harpist and early music specialist who is currently an Honorary Visiting Research Fellow at CHE, working within the Performance Program.

Charles Booth's Poverty Map
Charles Booth, a shipowner, sought to refute socialist allegations that a quarter of London's population lived in poverty. He thought this exaggerated, but his researches, published in 17 volumes, revealed that the true figure was even higher at one third. Here his extensive survey is presented in cartographical form with the levels of poverty colour coded. For example, dark blue represents 'Very poor. Casual, chronic want', while black stands for 'Lowest class. Vicious, semi criminal.' This sometimes conceals as much as it reveals. The purple of the mixed areas obscured much poverty while domestic servants in the yellow areas would hardly have been wealthy. Although Booth has no qualms about labelling the very poorest areas 'vicious semi-criminal' no comments are made about the ethics of the rich.

WARSAW — At the end of the game, all a team can ask for is to put itself in a position to win. In the second quarter Saturday night against Warsaw the Columbia City boys basketball team scored zero points and had turnovers on five-straight possessions. But at the end of the night, the Eagles still had a chance to win.
COLUMBIA CITY – When Columbia City and Whitko boys' basketball teams meet in their traditional pre-Thanksgiving contest, the game takes on a sectional atmosphere with each side going all out. This year's edition featured a tall, long, aggressive veteran Columbia City squad and a Whitko team with a brand new coach, and one win in games last season. Under some instances with a rivalry of this sort one might through records and such things out, but in this case things went according to expectations, as the Eagles opened their season with a dominating 73-16 win.
MONROE - Some basketball games are decided at the buzzer with one team hitting a shot as time expires for an exciting victory. Wednesday night's season-opener for the Churubusco Eagles boys basketball game was not decided at the buzzer. Instead, the Eagles first game of the year was decided in the first five minutes of the game. 'Busco used a full-court press and fast-break offense early to ground Adams Central and then pulled away for a 65-42 win.
COLUMBIA CITY — The first match of a season is an exciting time for high school wrestlers.
The intensity gets amped up a few notches if you are a Columbia City wrestler. Every season, the Eagles open up the year against perennial powerhouse and Northeast Hoosier Conference foe Bellmont.

HUNTINGTON — The Whitko Lady Wildcats basketballt eam traveled south on Ind. 5 to take on a winless Huntington Lady Vikings team Friday night.
The Lady Wildcats could not overcome offensive turnovers in the middle two quarters, and a Huntington advantage from behind the 3-point arc, falling to the host Lady Vikings by a 70-61 score.

Hi All,
I searched the forums and didn't find an answer to my question, so hoping someone can help. Several of my plants (peppers, summer squash, tomatoes, etc.) are suffering from verticillium wilt. I can find tons of info on management and control, but what I can't seem to find is exactly what I should do now, being that it is only mid-July and I have yet to harvest much at all. Do I pull all my plants that show symptoms (probably 60-70% of what I am growing) to prevent spread, or should I let them go and try to harvest what I can from them? I will definitely pull if necessary, just trying to avoid if possible since it will mean a very, very small harvest this year. I chose to grow all heirlooms, and am paying for it with their lack of disease tolerance! What would you do? |
Follow-Up Postings:
If indeed your plants have verticillium wilt the problem has already contaminated the soil and can stay virulent for years. I would probably let it go and salvage what I could, then consider lengthy crop rotations to something else or to another area for a while. hortster |
I'm sorry, but that seldom occurs in a home garden. To begin with, we need images. Also, we need the details of what you did to prep the soil, or are they in containers? If the latter, what did you fill the pots with? And we need details of how the plants looked whwen the problem began, |
Thanks for the replies. I will try to get some images up later today. Jean, I will do the best I can... I have plants in containers at home, as well as a community garden plot - both w/the same symptoms. The plants in containers are surprisingly worse. Everything was started at home from seed and looked healthy until about 3 weeks ago when leaf tips start browning in a v-like shape which then spreads upward. Leaves yellow one at a time, before wilting and dying. Lower leaves first. Plants have been fed with fish & kelp at 1bsp each per gallon every couple weeks or so. Also mulched with a 2" layer of composted horse manure. Planting mix was a 50/50 mix of Dr. Earth Organic potting soil (http://www.drearth.com/products/organic-soils/) and Master Nursery Gardener's Gold soil mix (http://www.masternursery.com/masternursery.cfm?Action=ViewDetails&ItemID=261&Category=1). Plants watered on as as-needed basis -- when soil is no longer damp, they receive water. Watered at base of plant, not from the top. I am in northern NJ. Temperatures have been variable -- from hot and humid to cool and wet. Symptoms began in late June, a little cooler and generally wetter than it is now. Also, plants were all inoculated with a soil-drench of mycorrizhae (MycoGrow) at transplant, in addition to Actinovate - using soil-drench method. Plants are also foliar-sprayed with Actinovate and Exel LG every 10 days or so at lowest recommended strengths for disease prevention (this was all started prior to symptom development). Also, I should note that I am not an incredibly experienced gardener by any means, but I am not a novice either. All the methods I have described above have been used in prior years successfully with no problems and high production from what I have grown. For whatever that is worth. |
siberian2, here is a good paper on verticillium wilt of vegetables with some good pictures. It may help you determine if your plants have the disease or if you might look for some other cause(s). hortster |
Here is a link that might be useful: Verticillium wilt of vegetables
Thanks hortster. What is described in that paper sounds consistent with exactly what I am experiencing in my plants. |
It would be unusual for both sites -- one in the ground, the other in containers -- to have verticillium. For container plants, much more likely is a water shortage. Also possible for garden plants especially when the temps are high and/or humidity is low -- the soil may be adequately moist but the roots can't supply the water to the tops fast enough. Also, what are other plots in the community garden doing? Same problems as yours? Or some similar and some fine. So please post pictures of of both sites -- that is if a tomato in community plot, also a tomato in a pot. And we need overall of each plant as well as a close-up. May be easiest to use an online storage site if you have it. |
jean, thanks again for the response. I am pretty certain this is more than a watering issue, but I have managed to get some photos up if you can spare a few moments to take a look. Anyone's thoughts are much appreciated. I put a lot of work into the garden this year (don't we always!), so this has been quite disheartening for me. Photos of my plants are up at the link below titled "Siberian's Plants". In case that doesn't work, here is the permalink: http://s1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff508/Siberian22/ |
Here is a link that might be useful: Siberian's plants
The images in horster's link re verticillium don't appear to me to be the same as your symptoms. Because your plants appear as if short of water, I believe the problem is underground. You might sacrifice one plant to determine what's going on. |
Thanks. I could be wrong but, I have to say with the recent rain we have had, I find it hard to believe this is a water shortage problem. Also, the v-shaped browning of the leaves (which happened at the earlier stages, not a much now which explains why it was not in all the pictures) points to an illness. You may be right, so I will dig up a plant or two to see what I can find out. I know for sure I am watering enough, the problem would be with the plant itself in its ability to use that water. I don't know if there is anything I can even do to help fix that, but I will start with looking at the roots. |
siberian, You said "I have to say with the recent rain we have had, I find it hard to believe this is a water shortage problem. " I understand. But consider that, if the root system is damaged or lacking, the top will wilt in spite of rain and sufficiently moist soil. And yes, we need to see the roots because we can get clues as to what may be happening there. |
My water testing tool is a long, skinny screwdriver that I use as a soil probe. After a little trial and error to determine resistance in both wet and dry soils, your soils being different in pots and the ground, it is a handy device to determine to what depth the soil is moist. Having said that, if there has been root system damage for some other reason the soil can be moist but the plants may not be drawing enough water, so jean is correct in sugesting digging one or two up to take a look. Do a little "probing" as well. And to clarify, in my original post the reason that I stated "...if indeed your plants have verticillium wilt..." is because it would be unusual to have it in both locations unless the plant material and/or seed source was contaminated in the first place. There can be a number of other things that affect root systems - nematodes, high mineral salt concentrations, other fungal diseases, etc. Yes, pictures of the roots, please! hortster |

Celebrity Lookalikes: Rafael Nadal, 'Bachelor' Ben Flajnik & Joe Francis (PHOTOS)
Despite being rejected by Bachelorette Ashley Hebert, winemaker Ben Flajnik is back and has 25 potential future wives vying for his attention. As The Bachelor met with each of the gals, we couldn't help but notice he looked pretty handsome and seemed to bear a striking resemblance to a few other famous men. Namely, tennis hottie pro Rafael Nadal and, yes we're going there, Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis.
Seriously, don't these three guys look alike?
Check out more celebrity lookalikes in the gallery above!
